On the 27th of November, water protectors from Standing Rock and a huge crowd of allies marched from the Dept of Justice past Trump Hotel to the Washington Monument. Once there, speakers described the ongoing campaign, the strategy, and the brutal repression water protectors have received in the process of slowing down and hopefully stopping the Dakota Access Pipeline
A truck bearing traditional drummers led the march, followed by jingle dancers ahead of the lead banner. Three of the jingle dancers were young children, who are literally fighting for their own right to live by opposing the Dakota Access Pipeline.
